For UK electricians & electrical contractors
Quote accurately, invoice fast, keep every job on record
Electrical work lives or dies on accurate pricing: first fix, second fix, testing time and materials that shift in price every few months. TradeSmart gives you a costing calculator that includes testing and certification time, tidy quote and invoice documents, and a searchable job history alongside each property you've worked on.
The admin problems electricians tell us about
Testing and certification time gets forgotten
Build inspection, testing and paperwork hours into your price so an EICR or consumer-unit change is never quoted at a loss.
Multi-stage jobs on new builds
Track first fix, second fix and snagging as separate visits under one customer so nothing is invoiced twice or missed entirely.
Cable and accessory prices keep moving
Update your materials costs once and every future quote uses the new figure automatically.

Electricians — common questions
- Can I keep records against a property rather than a person?
- Yes — customers hold an address and a full job history, which is what you need when a landlord or new owner calls about work you did years ago.
- Is this a certification or NICEIC tool?
- No — TradeSmart handles the business side (pricing, quotes, invoices, expenses and planning). Your certification software stays where it is.
